Project Venture International Camp, July 14-21, 2010
Project Venture Facilitator Workshops July 16-18, 2010
For over 27 years the National Indian Youth Leadership Project in Gallup, New Mexico has sponsored a summer Leadership Camp for youth. Attendance at the summer Leadership Camp is one of the key components in the Project Venture year-long program cycle.
This 28th Annual International Youth Leadership Camp will take place July 14-21, 2010 at the Sacred Mountain Camp near Mt. Taylor in New Mexico. An invitation to attend is being extended to each of our replication/implementation sites. Enrollment is limited to 4 youth and up to 4 staff per site and will be handled on a first come basis.
Leadership Camp
The summer Leadership Camp, a cornerstone of the Project Venture model, is an immersion experience in the working values of the model and NIYLP. For program providers it is an opportunity to expand on the time spent with the youth in your programs and to sharpen facilitation and programming skills. For the youth it is an opportunity to meet new people, try new roles and activities, learn about other cultures and create community with Project Venture participants from throughout the United States, Canada and beyond.
Registration:
Space in both the Camp and the workshops is limited. On-line registration deadline is June 5, 2010. After June 6th, call for availability.
Fee for youth is $ 400 per person.
Fee for adults is $ 600 per person and includes optional facilitator workshop.
